Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Satellite Terminal for LEO Constellations with Multi-Access Edge Computing
20STDPK42
SpaceBridge, as a pioneer in satellite ground-based technology, has planned to provide capabilities required for Industry 4.0, to accommodate Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) in order to facilitate concepts such as Cloud-based computing, Network Function Virtualization (NFV), Internet of Things (loT) alongside with RAN. Adding Low Earth Orbit constellation requirements for terminals will require unique features such as beam/satellite handover and heritage in the design of a universal terminal satisfying all these needs.
This reality and business direction has lead SpaceBridge to propose to design a new satellite modem with MEC and LEO capability that is compatible with the major requirements being demanded in the evolving Industry 4.0 revolution.

Prototype of Integrated Ka-Band Terminal with Direct Modulation
20STDPK43
The Integrated Ka-band Satellite Terminal with Direct Modulation and featuring Green power saving technology is a satellite communications device installed at a customer premise to enable Internet access. The terminal is intended for two-way satellite communication purposes using Geosynchronous Orbit (GEO) satellites. Such satellite terminal can be used for many applications such as broadband Internet access in remote locations, point-of-sales transaction (PoS), the Internet of Things (loT), SCADA transmission, radio frequency identification data (RFID) and Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) applications. The proposed development will produce the world's first green technology friendly satellite terminal with up to 90% reduction in power requirements.
